Description: | The ventral face has a bulb bulbal scar and ripples. The dorsal face is very smooth with semi-abrupt retouch to the distal left shoulder. The distal point and right shoulder has abrupt retouch. From the central area to the proximal end the right margin is snapped smooth. The proximal left margin has light retouch and the end is not retouched.The piece is made from dark grey flint with light grey spots. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble but this is difficult to confrim with only tertiary cortex.Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar piece on Page 129 Fig 56 No L96 which he calls an edge trimmed flake and dates to the early Neolithic.
